In display properties I have only the Themes tab showing.
How can I get my other tabs to appear?
They have never been available since I installed XP Professional.
I have ATI Catalyst control center running my L1910s LCD monitor.
I have tried gpedit and regedit settings but nothing I try will give me the
missing tabs.
Can anyone save my sanity?

Hello John,

Try this first:

Go to Start => Run and type in (or copy/paste):

regsvr32 /i shell32.dll
There is a space before and after the /i parameter.

Repeat the process with this:

regsvr32 desk.cpl
There is a space after regsvr32

===============================

If no joy, try this:

Copy the text below between the dotted lines, but not the dotted lines
themselves. Open Notepad and paste it in. Save the result in a
suitable location as tabs.reg - making sure that the default .txt
extension doesn't appear in the file name (Save as type = All Files).
Double-click on the saved .reg file to merge the contents.
Restart.
